I think I saw your last moment of life I saw it as a dream. You were on a dark wet road, you had pulled off another driver and collecting auto information, ie tag #, another car came down road driving erratically. The large, long fence on right side of road limited options of escaping path of oncoming drunk driver.
You tried to jump out of the way, but you didn't survive.
I told my mom, June McNaughton about the dream, that is when she told me about my great grandfather, Officer Alexander Bryant McNaughton.

My dream was so clearly vivid, I feel like I saw an echo of that moment in the past.I wish I'd had more of an opportunity to know my great grandfather. I was born too late for that (1958).

i also have dreamed about my maternal great grandfather who also died before my birth.

I miss both of my grandfathers and great grandfathers who all passed away before my birth.

i send love to you all.
